The ones on the main site seem to fit with their message better. [link] The "I am African" thing is bizarre.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, I feel you on that. A friend of mine dislocated his ankle during rugby. Scary. Icky. I can post a picture if you want.Such the giver... Um, no, but thanks!
"Please, might I have some food?" LOVE!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I've tried to think of a good reason for the I Am African things...but wow, what the hell? "I know you don't care about the continent, but if Gwyneth Paltrow pretended she came from there, you would!"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Also, I love Phantom Limb. LOVE.
He's really grown on me this season. I loved the rapport he and Brock had when they had to work together.
And is it just me, or is this season so far even better than last?
Also, the season 1 DVDs show Brock holding what looks like a Samurai sword. That is just so wrong. Brock's only weapon should be his Bowie knife, plus whatever objects he finds lying around or weapons he can take from his enemies. Or he can take his enemies and use them as weapons agains more enemies (like the dream-thing he had, where he simultaneously fought off cowboys riding dinosaurs and frogmen riding motorcycles with polar bears in the sidecars).

Always Anti-fascist!
I think I would love Brotherhood, Gus. Has a lot of my buttons in it. Not that interested in being a compass, though. Am however very fricking excited about the Wire special that will be on next week. There may have been audible squeeing, which I confess is not very West Baltimore of me. Interesting about the spices.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'll go even further than Gwyneth. Doesn't work with David Bowie, either.
Unless he's done a lot more work to support Africa (ok, a concept so broad as to have very little meaning) than I'm aware of. Which is perfectly possible, since I don't really know what Bowie has done lately.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Iman.
Less flippily, I think it egregiously doesn't work with Gwyneth, while still not working with, oh, anyone that's not African. Shiloh Jolie Pitt might have a swing at it. But only a swing.
We Are The World makes sense. I don't get I Am African.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
"I know you don't care about the continent, but if Gwyneth Paltrow pretended she came from there, you would!"
Basically. Although I just read that article about how Africa is so hot, so now.
Yay cuteness!
I just had a long lunch with coworkers, but no cupcakes. Ah well.
